Summary:

The Barre Unified Union School District #97 in Vermont is home to a single high school, Spaulding Union High School, which serves grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 610 students.

While Spaulding Union High School's statewide ranking has declined in recent years, going from 16th out of 37 schools in 2021-2022 to 25th out of 42 schools in 2024-2025, the school maintains a relatively small student-teacher ratio of 10.7 to 1. However, its academic performance lags behind the statewide averages, with proficiency rates in VTCAP/English Language Arts, VTCAP/Mathematics, and VTCAP/Science all below the state's benchmarks. Additionally, a high percentage of Spaulding Union High School's students, 45.74%, receive free or reduced-price lunch, indicating the school serves a population with significant economic needs.

Overall, the data suggests that Spaulding Union High School faces some challenges in maintaining its academic performance and statewide ranking, despite its relatively small class sizes. The school may benefit from a closer examination of its instructional practices, resource allocation, and strategies for supporting student achievement, particularly for its high-need population.
